Please join Mom (Thomma Lyn is the Ballicus Mom) and all us Ballicai in sending love, purrs, and prayers to Aunt Dorothy and her family. Dorothy's daughter, Gretchen's Aunt Paula, blogs at Basset Knitter. You can leave a note on Auntie Dorothy's bloggie here, and I'm sure Paula and Gretchen would both appreciate notes of love and support, too.

Aunt Dorothy, you are so loved -- you are a friend of the heart to Mom, and you have a wonderful and caring family who adores you. Please, please, please get well soon, and I'd love for the Cat Blogosphere to join me in sending purrs and prayers and love to Dorothy and her family! Please feel free to use / modify the above graphic for your blogs.
